TAXPAYERS face a bill of 100m for Olympic venues that will remain empty for up to a year before the 2012 Games. Olympics chiefs may have to raid their emergency fund to pay for the security of sites that are finished well ahead of the Games. The Olympic Stadium, the aquatics centre and the velodrome will all be completed by mid-2011.

A handful: Katie Price is going on the jungle reality show for the second time Forget the jungle creepy-crawlies, its Katie whos terrifying celebs THE contestants of Im A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! have admitted they are more scared of Katie Price than the Australian jungles creepy-crawlies. Price, 31, is set to make her second appearance on the celebrity reality TV show which starts its ninth series on ITV this Sunday evening. But although she wont join the jungle camp until the second week of the three- week series, she already has her fellow celebrities running scared. Former EastEnders actress Lucy Benjamin, 39, and Strictly Come Dancing star Camilla Dallerup, 35, said they have reser- vations about the glamour model. Dallerup said she was scared of her because she can be a h a n d f u l , w h i l e Benjamin said it would be scary to share a bed with her. But the most disgrun- tled contestants were TV makeover couple Colin McAllister, 41, and Justin Ryan, 42, who said she was unpleasant after they once tried to interview her. Ryan said: Id be disappointed if she turned up here. Referring to reports that Price will be paid five times more than the others, McAllister said: Shed need the money for her excess baggage. Those breasts will need a seat on their own. Other celebrities taking part in the show include Hollywood star George Hamilton, 70, former glamour model Sam Fox, 43, snooker player Jimmy White, 47, and How Clean Is Your House? co-host Kim Woodburn, 67. Price is currently in Los Angeles for a cosmetic makeover, including a Botox session, ahead of her return to the jungle. Last night she made an embar- rassing appearance on TV chat show Chelsea Lately and unwit- tingly became the butt of sharp-tongued host Chelsea Handlers jokes. At the end of t h e i n t e r v i e w, Handler said: You can go live with your horses and your kids and get Botox -- I dont give a s**t! Reservations: former EastEnder Lucy Benjamin who pays for their upkeep. When work is completed, government agency the Olympic Delivery Authority, which is responsible for construction, wants to hand them over to Games organising committee, Locog. But to keep down costs, Locog, which is privately funded, only wants to take over the venues just ahead of the Games. Much of the extra cost from the gap year will go on securing the 600-acre site. There will be 300 guards patrolling the Olympic Parks perimeter fence and operating the hi- tech biometric hand-reading system. Taxpayersfacing100mbillfor guardingemptyOlympicsites
